Making Construction Sustainable

Construction is a huge industry across the globe, in fact we need to build 13,000 buildings each day between now and 2050 to support an expected population of 7 billion people just living in cities. And as the world pays more and more attention to the climate, and our consumption of energy, it’s becoming more and more crucial that our construction is sustainable. Join presenter, scientist and engineering fan Fran Scott as she finds out exactly how robots are making this a reality. With thanks to Daniela Mitterberger of MAEID, Shajay Bhooshan of Zaha Hadid Architects, Ulf Hakansson from Skanska Sweden, and ABB’s Managing Director of Robotics and Discrete Automation, Andrea Cassoni.  Part of the ABB Decoded Series of podcasts, The Robot Podcast is a Fresh Air Production. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
